Some summarized developments quoted from the Global LNG Database®:

 

* NextDecade has decided to forfeit the Galveston Bay LNG project and “will no longer make lease payments to the site’s landholders, the Texas General Land Office and the City of Texas City” as it has completed an evaluation of the project’s site and determined that the site “is not suitable for development of an LNG facility and related infrastructure and utilities.” (more )

Earlier, Ireland's environment minister, Eamon Ryan, had revealed that the Port of Cork had ruled out pursuing the LNG import terminal as the new coalition Irish government has remarked that it would not support LNG terminals that imported fracked gas from the US.
It was a new setback for NextDecade after Engie halted talks over a potential long-term supply agreement with the company in November.
